The current Constitution of Georgienstine was adopted on 20 March 2021. It replaced the Constitution of 2 June 2020. Raphaël Olivier was the main driving force in introducing the new constitution and the text was drafted by him too. Since then, the constitution has not been amended.

Former constiutions

Georgienstine has had numerous constitutions in its history:

  • The Duchy of Principe and for a large part of the Federation of Coronia lacked a constitution and instead relied on custom and laws passed by the legislature.
  • Constitution of December 28 2019, established the Federation of Coronia as a federal parliamentary republic, Coronia still partly relied on custom
  • Constitution of 5 February 2020, established the Empire of Ossetia as a parliamentary absolute monarchy
  • Constitution of 2 June 2020, established the Empire of Syldavia as a unitary parliamentary[a] semi-constitutional monarchy
  • Constitution of 3 July 2020 established the Democratic Republic of Georgienstine (later renamed to the Social Republic of Georgienstine) as a federal presidential constitutional republic, amended numerous times
  • Constitution of 10 March 2021, established the Social Republic of Georgienstine as a federal presidential constitutional republic[b] (the current Constitution in force)

Criticisms

In the past, the current constitution had been criticized for being difficult to access. It has also been criticized by May Junkin for being too vague and up to deduction. Junkin is currently writing a proposal for a new constitution and president Olivier has pledged to hold a referendum on keeping the current one or switching to Junkin's proposal.

Notes

  1. The parliament, consisting of the State Duma had not been sworn-in
  2. The constitution was different from the 2 June 2020 one, despite keeping the same form of government.
